Hey random Facebook idiot, don’t you think God would have given you a working brain if he were truly amazing?
Notice this was posted Sunday at 11am, I bet she was told this at church and found it so inspiring she had to share it with the world.
‘If, while in a town, a man happens to meet a woman who is engaged to be married and he has sex with her, take them both to the gate of the town and stone them to death: the girl, for not having cried for help in the town; the man, for having violated another man’s wife. You must banish this evil from among you.’
‘But if, while out in the country, a man happens to meet a girl engaged to be married, and seizes her and rapes her, the rapist alone must die. You must do nothing to the girl. She has not committed a sin worthy of death, for she may have called out for help without anyone coming to her rescue.’
‘If a man happens to meet a virgin woman who is not engaged to be married, and he seizes her and rapes her, but is caught in the act, he rapist must pay the girl’s father fifty silver shekels. She must marry the rapist, because he has violated her. And so long as he lives, he may not divorce her.’
Deuteronomy 22:23-29
This is your “word of God” and the basis of all the world’s morality?
Update:
The notion that these rules (and the other ridiculous ones riddled throughout the text) do not apply to Christians, because Jesus formed a new “covenant” is ridiculous. If the text is the indefectible word of god, you can not take bits and pieces and say that some are no longer valid.
To quote the Bible,
“Every good and perfect gift is from above, coming down from the Father of the heavenly lights, who does not change like shifting shadows.” - James 1:17
Euthyphro’s Dilemma summed up nicely
Every once in a while Plato would write something with which I can actually agree. Here’s one of such things.
In reference to this segment if you did not catch it
A child knows how they work. What an idiot.

Serve in Heaven?
So the consensus on Christian views of “Heaven” and “Hell” are that believers go to Heaven and spend eternity worshiping their deity. Non-believers go to Hell and spend eternity being punished for their failure to believe and obey.
Does this not strike anyone else as a bit egotistical and totalitarian? God makes a bunch of these creatures named humans, then demands that either they worship him unconditionally for eternity or they will be punished for disobeying his will for eternity.
Am I the only one that, given these theological concepts, even if true, would rather stand resolutely rebellious and free-willed and be punished for using his free-will than spend an eternity on his knees as a praising slave?
I fucking love Canada!
The atheist group behind last year’s controversial bus ads suggesting “there’s probably no God” is rolling out a provocative new set of posters on buses across the country that places Allah beside Big Foot and Christ beside psychics.
The new posters bear the slogan: “Extraordinary Claims Require Extraordinary Evidence” with “Allah, Big Foot, UFOs, Homeopathy, Zeus, Psychics, Christ” listed below.
It’s nice to see atheists getting into the festive spirit around the world!
Don’t keep the faith,
